However, if getting rid of a player of his quality and character somehow makes the team "better"?  Then I hope they at least get a 5th for him, and use the saved money wisely.

I would agree with this.  Gio is overpaid for what he does as RB only.  But he is also a receiving threat and he does a hell of a job blocking.  From a pure numbers standpoint it makes sense to make a trade.  But from a personnel standpoint, I think it's a trickier discussion when you see him as a triple-specialty guy.
